Last night was tough depending on my 13 yr old 2 help me with my other 2 kids. Im glad she understands that its for the better.

Glad you are home! First few days are the hardest but it does get easier. Just hang in there. Sip and walk and rest.

I heard the first 2 to 3 days are the worst. Good Luck on recovery and hang in there

I got home Wednesday and this morning was my most pain so far. I slept flat on my back instead of propped up so that could be why. I took my meds and walked at least 10 minutes and now I feel better. Its not as bad as I thought it would be. I notice that it hurts when I swallow my protein shakes. My chest area gets really tight but then it passes. I guess its my body getting used to the new restrictions.

I hope your recovery will be as easy as mine so far. Hugs!

Yes, it hurts to swallow at first, especially if you forget and swallow more than a sip. It gets better, though!

@nikki3 Congrats! Your 13 year old must be greatly influenced by her mom trying to take care of herself. You have to take care of you, so that you will be there for them.

Keep up the good work!
